Hello, More than 200 different viruses can cause this infection, but the rhinovirus is the most common culprit. Antibiotics, which fight bacteria, won't treat your child's cold. Talk to the pediatrician if your child doesn't get better after a few days. Also call if he has a high fever, vomiting, chills and shakes, a hacking cough, or extreme fatigue.
